Curated by Skill Harbor — @pixijs's official skill for `DOMContainer` in PixiJS v8: position any HTML element over the canvas and drive its CSS transform from the scene graph — native inputs, iframes, videos, rich HTML panels that follow a display object's position, with `element` and `anchor` options, visibility sync (hide/remove detaches the element), pointer-events handling (shared root at z-index 1000, decorative overlays should set `pointer-events: none`), and `destroy()` semantics that preserve the element for re-attachment. The default browser bundle auto-registers the DOMPipe; custom builds need the side-effect `import 'pixi.js/dom'`. By @pixijs, listed here with credit to its creator. Honest caveats: **marked EXPERIMENTAL in PixiJS v8 — the API may change between minor releases**; DOM overlays always render above canvas content (no interleaving with draw calls); `tint`/`filters`/`mask`/`blendMode` have no visual effect on DOM elements — style with CSS; not available in Web Workers; a leaf — never nest PixiJS children inside it; MIT-licensed. Skill Harbor never reviews the code, review it yourself before use. Discovered via skills.sh.

Install
Prerequisites: a PixiJS v8 browser project (npm package pixi.js); nothing else — the skill is guidance plus code patterns, no accounts or keys required Install "PixiJS DOMContainer: HTML overlays on the canvas" for me. It teaches an agent @pixijs's official DOMContainer for PixiJS v8: overlay any HTML element (inputs, iframes, videos) on the canvas with scene-graph-driven CSS transforms, element/anchor options, visibility sync, pointer-events handling, destroy semantics that preserve the element, and the pixi.js/dom side-effect import for custom builds — marked EXPERIMENTAL in v8. MIT-licensed. Repository: https://github.com/pixijs/pixijs-skills/blob/main/skills/pixijs-scene-dom-container/SKILL.md 1. Fetch the SKILL.md file (and any helper files) from the repository path into a temporary folder and summarize what it does in one or two sentences. 2. Safety check: review the SKILL.md and scripts for anything suspicious (unexpected network calls, shell commands, credential harvesting). This repo should contain zero secrets in code, credentials only via the secure vault, allowed hosts declared in the SKILL.md. Verify that holds here; STOP on any red flag and tell me. 3. Install it as a skill: copy SKILL.md and its helper files into the agent's skills directory, in a folder named "pixijs-scene-dom-container". 4. Verify with no network calls: frontmatter valid, files in place. 5. Report what was installed, where, and what I still need to do myself (e.g. nothing — it is an overlay reference; remember the API is EXPERIMENTAL and overlays always sit above canvas content). GitHub is optional: if I have a GitHub account or the gh CLI, you may use it; otherwise public access is fine. Never require it unless it's in the prerequisites above. Rules: don't touch anything outside the temp folder and the install target. If anything looks off, stop and ask me.
Questions
How do I install a build?
Every product page includes a copy-paste install prompt. Paste it into your Muse and it sets the build up for you — no manual configuration.
Where does my money go?
Straight to the seller. Skill Harbor never processes payments: checkout happens on the seller’s own page, usually Stripe.
What does the ✓ next to a creator’s name mean?
It means we confirmed the identity of the person behind the listing. It says nothing about the code itself — always check a build before installing it.
